• 900 Fargo Avenue - Revised Screening Plan
Chairman Glass read a memorandum from the Building Commissioner
regarding the screening plan. The company requested to replace their
landscaping with a deco link fence.
Clark Fulton stated that the property is not being maintained at
present and a fence would be an improvement. He also raised a
concern that the fence might become an eyesore in the future. He
said that he saw no reason to assume that a fence would be maintained
there. Leah Cummins agreed and stated that she would prefer something
more aesthetically pleasing because the property is across from
residential areas.
Following further discussion, Leah Cummins made a motion to deny
approval of the revised screening plan and Clark Fulton seconded it.
The vote for denial was unanimous.
Chairman Glass stated that the Plan Commission was not opposed
to the intent of the screen plan or the use of a fence. He stressed
the need for a maintenance provision to be included in the plan.
Leah Cummins added that something also should be added to increase
the aesthetic quality of the screening plan because of the residential
dwellings across the street.
